It is‚ therefore‚ highly beneficial in the treatment of acidosis and other diseases associated with too much acid in the system. The presence of oxalate ions and oxalic acid content in tomatoes is also a cause of kidney stones. Several researches have proven that the

Kinetic and Thermodynamic Reaction Condition Brandon Bullock 2/10/15 Objective The purpose of this experiment is to test kinetic theory by running several reactions and determine which product are formed under kinetic conditions and which products are formed under thermodynamic conditions. Kinetically controlled products have low transition states. This makes it easy for the product to be formed at low temperatures

g A. Ion exchange Chromatography Ion exchange chromatography is a process for separating proteins and other molecules in a solution based on differences in net charge. Ion Exchange Chromatography relies on charge-charge interactions between the proteins in your sample and the charges immobilized on the resin of your choice. Ion exchange chromatography can be subdivided into cation exchange chromatography‚ in which positively charged ions bind to a negatively charged resin; and anion exchange chromatography

Reactivity of Halide Ions Purpose: There are four halide salts used in this experiment that are found in the human body. Sodium fluoride is poisonous‚ but has been traced to be beneficial to humans in the prevention of tooth decay. Sodium chloride is added to many of our foods to increase flavor. Sodium chloride is important for many life processes‚ but too much intake is linked to high blood pressure. Sodium bromide is distributed throughout body tissues. Sodium iodine controls cell growth. The

Ion Exchange Chromatography Week 10 TAG Question 1: Chapter 6-4 of your technique book provides a detailed description of how to run a ion- exchange column. Assume you have a cation-exchange column already prepared and ready to use. Create an outline of no more than 10 steps describing how you will regenerate the column‚ load your sample and collect the hydronium ion released. 1. Open the stopcock at the bottom of the column and allow solution to drain out until the solution level in the

WHAT IS TORQUE? Torque is a measure of how much a force acting on an object causes that object to rotate. The object rotates about an axis‚ which we will call the pivot point‚ and will label ’O ’. We will call the force ’F ’. The distance from the pivot point to the point where the force acts is called the moment arm‚ and is denoted by ’r ’. Note that this distance‚ ’r ’‚ is also a vector‚ and points from the axis of rotation to the point where the force acts. (Refer to Figure 1 for a pictoral

Most of enzymes are proteins that help speed up chemical reactions by lowering amount of activation energy needed for the reaction1. Enzymes are usually highly selective‚ only bind to specific substrate and convert it to product at a particular rate1. The rate of the reaction

Experiment 9 Empirical Formula of Zinc Iodide Objectives Upon completion of this experiment‚ students should have learned: 1. The law of conservation of mass. 2. How to calculate an empirical formula. 3. The concept of limiting reagents. Introduction Synthesis and the determination of empirical formulas are two extremely important parts of chemistry. In this experiment‚ you will synthesize zinc iodide and determine its empirical formula. The molecular formula gives the actual

The main goal of the enzyme kinetics experiment was to see how the phosphatase-catalyzed hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl produced p-nitrophenol in the presence of phosphate and fluoride ion inhibitors of various concentrations. The calculated Km constant was found to be 0.22 for all reactions. The Vmax values for each inhibition ion were 0.00986 for the phosphate ion and 0.00436 for the fluoride ion. The inhibitor constant‚ Ki‚ was determined to be 0.0967 for the phosphate ion. The inhibitor constant for
